Three Emporia State athletes earned athlete of the week honors from the MIAA this week.
Samantha Sheeley was chosen as the softball Pitcher of the Week, Kenton Longberger was the male Track Athlete of the Week and Jonel Rossbach was the female Track Athlete of the Week.
Sheeley, a senior from Coralville, Iowa, went 3-0 with a 1.00 earned-run average in four appearances (three starts) for the No. 12 Hornets last week. At home against Washburn on Sunday, she gave up two runs on five hits with six strikeouts and one walk, as ESU clinched the MIAA regular-season championship with a 4-2 win.
